Carbohydrate-binding modules: powerful tools in the research and development of carbohydrates - a review.

Carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) are independent domains generally appended in carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) with carbohydrate-binding functions. The primary roles of CBMs in CAZymes include targeting, proximity, disruption, and adhesion effects. Due to their capacity to recognize and bind to specific carboh...
